Faktor-Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Balita Stunting di Puskesmas Pauh Menggunakan Metode Regresi Probit Biner

Abstract

A toddler who experiences stunting will be shorter than toddlers in general, both in height and body length. Stunting causes pathological changes characterized by growth disorders that result in delayed child growth that is not in accordance with standards, thus causing short-term and long-term impacts. Using the binary probit regression method, this study aims to determine the structural model, variables that are most likely to cause stunting in toddlers and the causes (factors) of stunting in toddlers at the Pauh Health Center. This research is applied. This study uses primary data from a sample of 98 toddlers using the accidental sampling technique. According to research findings, LBW, maternal education level, family members who smoke, and history of KEK are variables (factors) that effect toddler stunting at the Pauh Health Center.
